I drive a Renault Clio 52 reg, I'll find some pictures later.

Insurance wasn't too bad, £606 for me and both my parents - considering I'm 17.

My fist car was a 1968 Hillman Imp Californian, in light blue.

A real racey number in those days, and could reach 70mph in a week and a half. I had Cosmic alloy wheels, and a 8ft whip aerial, Cibie Spot lights with spray on tinted windows, not to mention the 8 track stereo!!

I drive now a Cougar, RS 2000, 2 x TR6's and an XR4i.

The XR4i image is in the Ford Retro thread, but this is the RS2000

Oh! and insurance on the RS is £197 fully comp!!!

I'll be able to drive when I turn 16, but I think my mom's Chevrolet Optra 1.8 and my bro's Twingo (my dad surely won't let me around his Kia Sedona!)will have to do for at least until I turn 18 and go to uni. Then I'll (my mom) probably get my own car, hopefully a Clio.

my first car, in 1979, was a Saab 96 with V4 engine and column gear change, just like this. passed my driving test in it too!



Having had a Datsun 240Z, an original MR2, countless hire cars mostly 80's 320 and 323 BMW's and then several Saab 9000 including an Erik Carlsson special limited edition 9000 (a version of the Taladega), I am now driving a Saab convertible




it seems I have an affinity for all things Swedish!

The first car I ever had was a
Nissan Sunny.

My family then gave me a Jaguar X-Type.

When I went to university I bought my first car.

A Toyota MR2 T-Bar G Limited Edition.



I've gone through quite a few cars now.
I now have this.
